Corporate Of Counsel, Dublin

Salary: €170,000+ base salary + exceptional bonus structure

About the Opportunity

An exceptional opportunity has arisen for a senior corporate lawyer to join a top-tier international law firm's rapidly expanding Dublin office.

This position is tailored for a senior practitioner (7+ years PQE) seeking a high-calibre alternative to traditional partnership. Sitting as a key senior figure within the Corporate group, you will step into an immediate, high-volume flow of sophisticated Irish and cross-border transactions, without the immediate pressure of business development. The work is already on the desk; the team simply requires a competent, trusted senior lawyer to lead and execute.

Key Highlights

• A highly competitive base salary starting around €170k, paired with one of the most lucrative bonus structures in Dublin
• Genuine respect for personal time, no weekend-working culture, protected annual leave, and open to structured four-day working week arrangements.

Work at the centre of major European, US, and Australian cross-border M&A, private equity, and corporate restructuring mandates, serving as a key hub for global corporate clients.

Fill a crucial leadership layer within the team. You will run high-value transactions independently, mentor bright junior lawyers, and serve as a trusted right-hand to senior partners.

About You

• Ideally 7+ years PQE in corporate law gained within a major Irish firm, international firm, or the UK market.
• London returners or top-tier Dublin-based Senior Associates/Of Counsel looking for a strong career step without the partnership grind.
• High technical competency, strong transactional execution skills, and the ability to work autonomously with minimal supervision.
• Dedicated client development is not a requirement for this role; your primary focus will be quality delivery and file management.
